.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fBl2ping\fP [\fIOPTIONS\fP] \fIbd_addr\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBl2ping(1)\fP sends a L2CAP echo request to the Bluetooth MAC address bd_addr
given in dotted hex notation.
.SH OPTIONS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.BI \-i \ <hciX>
The command is applied to device \fIhciX\fP, which must be the
name of an installed Bluetooth device (X = 0, 1, 2, ...)
If not specified, the command will be sent to the first
available Bluetooth device.
.TP
.BI \-s \ size
The size of the data packets to be sent.
.TP
.BI \-c \ count
Send count number of packets then exit.
.TP
.BI \-t \ timeout
Wait timeout seconds for the response.
.TP
.BI \-d \ delay
Wait delay seconds between pings.
.TP
.B  \-f
Kind of flood ping. Use with care! It reduces the delay time
between packets to 0.
.TP
.B  \-r
Reverse ping (gnip?). Send echo response instead of echo
request.
.TP
.B  \-v
Verify response payload is identical to request payload.
It is not required for remote stacks to return the request
payload, but most stacks do (including Bluez).
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
